After teaching stints at the University of London and Queen Mary College, London, he joined the faculty at Osgoode Hall Law School in 1975 where he remained until his retirement in 2001.\nProfessor Hasson was dedicated to the advancement of social justice as a teacher, scholar and citizen. He was a much loved instructor whose teaching in the areas of commercial and consumer law insurance and personal income security was infused with his passionate concern for poor and vulnerable members of society.\nIn his scholarship, he brought to light injustice tolerated and perpetuated by the legal system. He was actively involved with community groups advocating for justice on behalf of poor and oppressed groups in Canada and internationally.\nThe funeral was held March 17 at Benjamin’s Park Memorial Chapel.\nDonations to the Reuben Hasson Award can be made through give.osgoodealumni.ca.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
